IoT Today: Where are we at and where are we heading?

Billions of devices! Trillions of dollars! The hype around the Internet of Things is intoxicating, but is it real? Bruce will discuss the state of the Internet of Things today and what’s happening in IoT technology and business that’s naturally leading us to the Outcome Economy. Bruce’s presentation will answer the following questions:

What is the difference between the smart product, the connected product and the IoT product?

What is the digital twin and why is it the most important tech in IoT?

What is the best way to look at IoT? Hint, it’s not as a network stack.

What is the difference between the IoT platform and ecosystem?

The next wave of IoT – Will Gen 2 unlock a whole new level of Interoperability?

IoT has moved from hype to reality, but where is it heading? Over 65% of US companies are implementing IOT solutions, but the reality falls far short of the vision for a world where things connect together seamlessly, with ubiquitous interoperability and automated decision making.

Gen 2 IoT will address the big issues to connect siloed solutions and drive a new wave of innovation. We have the capability to get there today.
